The Abram Breeze THE DESERTED SCHOOLHOUSE The little school house stands deserted Out on a lonely road. There's cobwebs on the books and desks And a rat in every board. The teacher,s desk has drawers all flopping And papers scattered round. The windows all broken out And glass is on the ground. The only time the schoolbell rings Is when the wind does blow. And when it does, the big red door Goes flapping to and fro. As if the ghosts of Gram and Gramp Were coming back to school The way they did so long ago To learn the Golden Rule. Christie Packard '53 WAR Red balls of fire did glow, Tall houses fell to the ground, As weary soldiers tried To still the cannon's roar The hopeless people saw Everywhere a burning homeg The dead would never more Admire their capitol's dome. Leo Boyce ,52 THE STORM The breeze set the trees gently swayingg More and more wild was its playing, Leaves, branches, blown helter-skelter And everyone rushing for shelterg Then down in torrents came the rain. just as suddenly all was quiet again. Malcolm Knapp ,52 THE BISMARK To the sea went the great Bismark, Joy and pride of the German heartg Long and sleek as the seas, Beautiful as the breeze, Till British guns hit their mark. Henry Carey '51 SKIING I like to ski upon the hills In the winter time. Skiing is a lot of fung It's a favorite sport of mine. I like to feel the wind and snow Blowing in my face. The snow makes patterns on my pants Like soft and pretty lace. Robert Tayior '53 THE MODERN KNIGHT Bravc deeds are told of knightsof old And of their ladies fair, But here's a tale of Bonnie Gail And of bold Arthur Dare. She was standing by a mud puddle And wishing for a horse When he came and stood close to her And offered to help her across. He picked her up and started to walk Around the puddle deep. But lost his footing and dropped her And she began to weep. A big policeman heard the noise And came to her aid in a hurryg He gently lifted her up and took Her home in his surrey.
